HC Deb 09 April 1968 vol 762 c214W
53. Mrs. Joyce Butler

asked the Minister of Health what pilot studies are at present being conducted by his Department into the value of daily mouthwashes with sodium fluoride; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. K. Robinson

None. Different methods of administering fluoride, including mouthwashes, have been studied, but none has been found to be as effective as the fluoridation of public water supplies, which is simple and completely safe.
